I'm kind of annoyed that they gave away "to save SHIELD, we have to save Hydra" in the trailers, because Koenig's casual "old man Mallick" line was perfectly timed for maximum "wait, what?"

Has it been confirmed they are time hopping around? It is the majority of the season 1931 NYC?

I hope some parts are more straightforward morally. "We have to let this bad stuff happen to preserve history" can be fun but is way overdone and loses the sheen.

I do like the idea that HYDRA and SHIELD are so closely linked one can't exist without the other, so we get the most unlikely team up in the most unlikely way against a somehow bigger threat. Just as long as we don't hang out here and agonize over moral decisions so we can all move on, I'm deffo onboard.

It's also worth remembering that this isn't actually a case of them saving Hydra, it's more a case of them saving a "good kid" who we just so happen to know will eventually turn bad. If we don't know Freddy's name, we're entirely on board with saving him and allowing history to proceed as it would. It's certainly arguable that it's therefore the moral thing to save him, whatever he later becomes. And I kinda hope our heroes would save him even if he wasn't the thread the chronicoms were pulling at to unravel SHIELD.

She might feel bad about it later but she's fully embraced being ringu torture scientist without Fitz to balance her.

Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:To save shield we need to not tip anyone off about the Holocaust. The image just popped into my head of time travel scientists trying to figure out how to do the most good while minimizing changes to history. "Okay, if we kill Hitler any time before June 6, 1940 it leads to a paradox reality where time travel isn't invented. Jenkins, go back to the archives and figure out a time after that when it would disrupt the rest of their military before someone else took over, we can probably get away with giving the Maquis a heads up."

Jemma's affect reminds me of how a lot of health care workers act in severe trauma cases. Like a really horrific accident or gunshot wound. Its a focused disengagement that allows you to not see the person but instead the case and the work to be done. You can't be thinking about the person while doing alot of complicated procedures and decision making that requires your full attention.

Argue posted:Fitz is gonna be an old man when we see him next isn't he My guess is that he will be, but they'll just lop off that part of his personal timeline, deliberately paradoxing out his perfection of time travel and letting him live out his life with Simmons. It's not like this Fitz isn't already the result of a time-loop and amputation.

swickles posted:Also Simmons says Coulson is taking in two years worth of data from his last framework scan, so its probably not much longer than that. Like for Fitzsimmons it's probably been a couple months. I think they are uploading 2 years of updates so he is in synch with us as viewers and Quake, Mac etc. I think it's pretty telling that Simmonds dodged saying how long it has been for them multiple times, I'm guessing years not months.

Slashrat posted:Coulson binged all of both season 5 and 6 in his mind in 2 minutes, yeah Reminds me of when Fitz had to catch up with all of season five in the span of a couple of minutes. Him dying, finding out he got married, then Coulson dying... I don't think he even noticed Yoyo's hands. I rememeber Jemma is trying to cheer him up by telling him "there was a lot of death, yes, but there was also beauty!" and Fitz is all "what, more death than this?" just as Coulson walks in. It really made me realize how dark season five really was.

Hoping for a 50s mini-arc that gives some closure to Agent Carter. Maybe we'll see Hayley Atwell and Dominic Cooper (or John Slattery). If the Disney+ Loki series is following the Loki that stole the Tesseract in the first Avengers, couldn't pre-death Coulson technically show up in that show? I don't recall if that scene from Endgame took place before or after Coulson was killed.

So Coulson is dead when Loki escapes. They said Sousa is gonna be in the show. Unless they're saving Atwell for a surprise cameo, she probably won't be in it.

Admittedly I don't pay attention to this as closely as everyone else, but wasn't hydra supposed to be some inhuman worshiping secret society that's been around at least a few centuries? Or at least one of their endless branches. In fact red skull was just another branch because there's always a new bad guy and that bad guy is always just a previously unknown branch of hydra. So why is hydra suddenly about to get founded for the first time in the 1930s?

# ? Jun 1, 2020 07:45 |

Not founding, but this guy's son was one of the major leaders. He's handing off some serum important enough to get him into that position so if you take him out along with the serum you disrupt one of the guiding forces and a plan that may take their teeth out entirely. Hydra pre-Skull/Whitehall/Malik was, as I understand it, more of a Skull&Bones-esque old boys' club with a death cult base. If you disrupt that public militant swerve then you disrupt Captain America and the SRR/Shield. They don't need to kill Hydra, just keep it in the shadows.

in AoS its pretty clear that Red Skulls Hydra and the US Hydra were completely separate heads. I could see the US branch being more focused on economic and political power opposed to Red Skulls military and scientific focus.
